Art is Ageless® exhibit and reception features senior artists

Since the beginning of time, creative expression has brought joy to both its creators and those who experience their art. The Art is Ageless® program offers senior artists the opportunity to share and display their artwork and reaffirms the agelessness of human creativity.

This February, their works are on display at Fulton Presbyterian Manor.

“It’s inspiring to see the beautiful pieces these seniors have created,” said Dawn Smith, executive director. “The joy it brings to them and others is wonderful, and that’s something we want to celebrate and share with the entire Fulton community.”

The Art is Ageless exhibit will feature works from local artists who are 65 and older, including a few Fulton Presbyterian Manor residents. The public is welcome to visit the community to view the exhibit of acrylics, oils, photography and various other mediums, ranging from amateur to professional levels. The exhibit is open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., February 16 – 18, 2019.

In addition to the exhibit, Fulton will honor local senior artists during a reception at the community at 2 p.m. on February 19.

For the competition, works are to have been completed in the past five years (since January 2014). There are nine categories, as well as designations of amateur or professional. Works to be entered for judging need to be at Presbyterian Manor by February 18.

Entry forms and information can be picked up at Fulton Presbyterian Manor, 811 Center Street, Futon, MO, 65251 or by calling 573-642-6646 or emailing tallen2@pmma.org. Or go to ArtIsAgeless.org to view rules, download an entry form or enter online.
